Night Drive Vid

Here is a long boring vid of some German guys driving around in a 135i at night.

The exhaust note is very loud and deep. Thats the main thing I love about this car. Is it me or is the engine/exhaust noise actually louder then the sound of the turbos spooling? Has to be the variable valve timing.

Yup that video is boring, but I love the exhaust note.

Seemed pretty easy to rev-match downshift for the driver. Quick blip, snick the shifter, and let out the clutch. It went pretty smoothly. On my S52 powered 318ti, it's that simple to do, but on my e90, it's not as easy because of delayed throttle response.

So, I'm hopeful that the 135i has decent throttle response!

Talk about being able to overdrive your headlights in a heartbeat. Man the exhaust is incredible in that thing.

I have never liked how BMW aims their headlights. I always raise them.
